What parameters are they using to block non-SD devices?
The easiest one would be to check for the SteamDeck=1 variable.
So if I added that as a launch argument it would work? Is it that simple?
It works on some games and not others.
I heard it works on Marvel Rivals but It didn't work when I tried it on Ironsight, it just kicked me out.
Rivals works on normal Linux desktops without any hacks
